Time Flies!

I can't believe I let so much time go by since my last update- and boy has it been an exciting time! Shae is starting use "words", I don't know that I would say she is talking yet, but she sure has a lot to say! She delights in calling Jeremy and I both by name (Mama and Dada) and Angel is convinced she said "Dama" (Grandma) one time! She looks for the "kitty cat" as soon as we get to work and is starting to recognize pictures of cats in her animal book. "Yeah" is her response to everything, which is better than "no!" (soon to come I'm sure) but I'm not sure she grasps the concept of her words at this point. But we all love to watch her every move and she nears taking her first steps and exploring everything!

We have started her on some table foods and one of her favorites is of course, spaghetti! Soon to follow was bath time :) She also loves, mandarin oranges, carrots, chicken, and about any pasta! It has been fun to watch her discover new textures and tastes- she will eat about anything though!

One of the highlights in May was taking my sister Sarah shopping for her birthday. It was great fun to spend the day with her and she is such a great auntie! I wasn't convinced Shae would like the ride but as you can see she thought it was pretty special to ride in the ice cream truck with Auntie Sarah!

Sadly, we are already planning for Christmas- but for a GREAT reason! Shae is going to be a big sister around the Christmas Holiday and we couldn't be more excited. We are keeping the nursery the same but moving Shae into a new room so I have been busy planning for that and I think I have finally narrowed down my options for paint colors and bedding sets!
I will make an effort to update more often!
